Churchill v. University of Colorado: a landmark case for academic freedom.

Ward Churchill is suing the University of Colorado because CU fired him on pretextual grounds, in violation of his First Amendment rights. But more importantly, he’s suing because this case will determine how easily schools across the country can purge professors who challenge the status quo.

We need your help! Lawsuits are expensive. We are raising money for legal expenses – /filing fees, deposing witnesses and obtaining transcripts, plane tickets for witnesses outside Colorado, copying and compiling evidence and exhibits.

All donations will go to Attorney David Lane’s trust account and be used only for out-of-pocket legal expenses. Any cost associated with fundraising is covered by WCSN volunteers; the lawyers will get paid only when Ward wins.
